Someone told him,
Meet them…..
And you will encounter a “happy event”

[Gege]
His grandmother told A-Xiu that he had a gege, an older brother.
As a child, A-Xiu didn’t understand why he had to call the skeletal remains in the urn “gege.” He also didn’t understand why he put rice under the bed each day for the other person, as if it was really his “gege.”
He felt that it was all just his grandmother’s delusion.
Then when his grandmother passed away, A-Xiu staggered to the bed and cried endlessly. And a tall, cold figure leaned over A-Xiu’s thin body, uttering a hoarse and twisted whisper.
“Don’t be afraid. Gege is still here.”
A-Xiu finally understood his grandmother’s painstaking efforts.
It turned out that only by becoming a “family member” would “it” not hurt him.
But his grandmother seemed to have forgotten that if one wanted to be a family with such a thing, one must pay a price……

[Dragon Marsh Village]
Jiang Chuyan always thought that his childhood experience was just an absurd and distant dream.
In the dream, in order to keep his frail, sick self alive, his mother “married” him to a “Dragon God” deep in the dragon marsh.
The ignorant and superstitious village witch said that after marrying the Dragon God, Jiang Chuyan would no longer be a person of this world. His life and soul belonged to the nameless god, and he naturally no longer had to worry about the fate of early death that was destined for him.
When he grew up, Jiang Chuyan returned to the mountain village he had long been away from for his university elective course’s folklore assignment.
He thought this would just be an ordinary trip back home, but never thought that with his return, the horror and death he had overlooked in his childhood would come in droves.
And the only person he could rely on inadvertently exposed his horribly deformed and scaly tail.

[Meat Soup]
Gu Hezhi lay dazed in his room for half a month until his roommate dragged him out.
“Come on, come on, try the soup my girlfriend made.” The roommate greeted everyone with a bright smile.
Everyone in the shared house gathered around the table and politely drank bowl after bowl.
Gu Hezhi also drank.
The soup was delicious, and the meat inside was especially tender and tasty. Someone at the table asked what kind of meat it was. The roommate stared blankly, and just said with a smile that he had taken it from Gu Hezhi’s refrigerator.
“I’m sorry to trouble you. Since you’ve been going directly to bed, I let her use it first, and planned to settle the bill with you afterward.”
Gu Hezhi’s bowl fell to the ground.
He lost his temper at the table and rushed to the toilet to vomit. However, the meat seemed to have melted into his body, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not spit it out.
And that night, while half asleep, Gu Hezhi smelled a familiar scent.
A familiar man with a lingering chill on his body leaned behind him and placed his hands on his shoulders.
“A-Zhi.”
The man’s mutilated face smiled in the darkness.
“Don’t hide…..let me hug you.”
“Will you let me out…..”
“I’m cold.”
